THE VANDALIA DEAL.
The Sale Of the Vandaliz Railroad to the G.,
q. and D. Syndicate.
The Gene raj Onices to be Removed to Gin
einnati-What is Thought of
the Sale.

Railroad circles have been on the qui
Yive for several DAYS because of rumors re-
garding the sale of the Vandalia Road to
the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton Rail-
road Company. Mr.. Henry s. Ives is
thought to be the moving spirit of the
transaction, and those who know him in
timately say that he is q sort of embryo
Napoleon in his business modes and ideas.
Though only twenty Ave years of age, he is
said 10 be one of the shrewdest men on
Wall street. According to the following
Associate Press dispatch the sale has been
contaminated:
CINCINNATI, June 3.-Mr. Henry s. Ives
was seen to day in reference to the recent
deal OF the Cincinnati, Hamilton and Day
ton, and asserted positively that the trans
action was completed. He was not willing
to say what was the price paid, but he said
that the first installment was paid yester-
day and that the Cincinnati, Hamilton and
Dayton would take possession tomorrow.
This act would set at rest all doubts upon
the genuineness of the deal. The trains of
the Cincinnati, Indianapolis, st. Louis and
Chicago would be permitted to run over
the new acquisition for the present. What
would be done later could not now be told.
Asto the Pennsylvania Company, he should
insist upon their trains continuing as at
present. They would be urgently requested
TO do so. Mr.. Ives did not conceal the fact
that he anticipated trouble of some sort
with the Pennsylvania Company, growing
out of its relations with the newly &C.
quired property. The general offices of
Vandalia Road will be removed to this
city. MIR. Ives will be here for a short
time, his object being to arrange for plsc-
ing the new depot bonds of the Cincinnati,
Hamilton and Dayton Road.

FreddY's Appeal.

Little Fred did not like Sunday. He
never had thought much about 1t except
that the bells rang and big folks went to
church; that mamma told him Bible
stories, when he somehow felt very good
and peaceful, and that papa was home all
day, and in the afternoon, If it were clear,
took him out for walk. That is, until he
lived next door to some children and dis
covered that on Sundays he could not go
to their house to play. From this time
Sunday was q great trial, and frequently
for days before he would talk of little else.
''How many days till Sunday, auntie2"
he mournfully asked one morning as he sat
by the register, Vainly trying to button
his shoes.
Why. three whole days, Freddy" cheer
ipgly answered auntie.
"0ny free dsys?' walled Fed, in tones OF
deepest woe. Then theoretically, 81 don't

days of the week. 1t is Gods day"
"Gcd makes the Sunday?" said Fred.

This idea appeared to cheer him, for be
vigorously reattacked the buttons and be-
gan to hum tune. Presently he began to

Gossip About the Deal.
Commercial Gazette.l


What will be known to railway histO- y
as TIE great Vandalia deal was the one
theme of conversation yesterday in the
local railway world In Pennsylvania
circles-and these radiate more widely
than one would imagine on superficial OBJ
ervation-everybodyw was slow to believe
caught mapping, even temporarily. Penn
sylvania officials knew. or pretended to
know, nothing about it Except what they
saw in the newspapers"
A peculiar thing about existing laws is
illustrated by the transaction. The major
ity of the stock of little corporation be-
ing bought up, the control of the property
goes to the purchasers, and with this con-
troll that of all the leases and other valu-
able holdings of the little road. Thus a
transaction affecting a whole railway sys'
tenn and immense amounts of securities
can be made with money that is trihing in
amount compared with the results achieved,
II the operator is smart enough to find Just
the place to put his million or two into.
The little road becomes the power-"the
tail wags the dog"
The Pennsylvania can, of course, be only
temporarily Inconvenience, If at all. They
can either remain on the Vandalia tracks
under the old or a new arrangement, build
the links necessary for new st. Louis line
say in connection with the Big Four-or
swap New York entrance to the B. and
o. for st. Louis entrance.
The object and the result of the deal was
not to iDjure the Pennsylvania interests,
but to enhance those of the b. and o. and
c., II. and d.

The subject of conversation yesterday in
railroad circles was the purchase of con.
trolling interest in the Terre Haute and In
dianapolis Road by the Cincinnati, Hamil-
ton and Dayton people. Many of the local
railIoaders doubted the truth OF the state.
ment. Notwithstanding the doubt ex-
pressed the deal is an assured fact. As
stated in yesterdays Enquirer, the first
payment was made at Terre Haute Wednes-
day, and yesterday certified check was
given in this city for the balance of the
purchase money.
1t is said that the existing relations be-
tween the Pennsylvania and Ciacinnssl,
Hsmilton and Dayton people are friendly,
and that the former will continue to oper-
ate over the T. II. and /. and Vandalia if
they 30 desire.

people to build from Red Bank, Oh the

the extension from Red Bank to Hamilton,
but as satisfactory arrangements have
been made between the c., II. aud ID. and
Pennsylvania the line will be extended n ,
further than Hamilton, and the Pennsyl-
vania VIII, after it's completion to that
point, operate over the c., H. and 1. be-
tween Hamilton and Richmond, at which
point they again strike their own lines.
The c., II. and D. people also also threat
ened some time since to build from Rush
vile to Anderson, to connect with the Gin
cinnati, Wabash and Michigan, and had
surveyors in the field running the line. but
amicable arrangements have been made
with the Pennsylvania Company under
which the c.. II. and d. people will oper-
ate over the Pennsylvania lines between
Richmond and Anderson, lad, where they
strike their recent acquisition, the Cincin-
natl, Wabash and Michigan.

CAUGHT BY A COWBOY.
Several Young Californians Thought They
Had Caught Him. Their Mistake.
[The Sam Francisco Examiner


The San Francisco ExaminerI
A man of twenty-five and of medium
height, apparently from the country, swag-
gered into the Baldwin billiard-room on
Tuesday night. The coat he wore was an
antique Prince Albert, well oiled about the
joints, and it looked as though the suns of
many seasons we're lodged in il. His pants
were OF the old spring-bottom pattern, held
tight about the waist by yellow belt. A
felt hat, discolored by the sun, covered a
small, humpy head, aud shaded a pair of
grey eyes below the projecting forehead.
His whole appearance was that of man
who had been lying on the range at night
and walking about in the daytime.
"Playin' pool, eh?' he grunted, as he
lounged up to where a number of young
bloods were engaged in pyramid pool.
There was a hasty consultation among
the latter, the conclusion reached being
that the seedy-lookiDg individual was q
chump, and that it was their duty to work
him.
Yes, we are playing pool; want to join
usP' answered one, winking at his friends
Don't mind if do; but you fellers III
knock the spots often me-"
mo, we won't; Wen promise not to.
Won't we, boys? with another wink.
They all promised they would give the
newcomer a show, and he took cue
He was fifth and last to play, and when
it came his turn he handled the stick so
clumsily that the hearts of the other boys
beat with JOY. He missed, and before it
came his turn again all the balls were
down.
Next game he took second shot, and, to
encourage him, the gamekeepcr showed
HIM the easiest shot. After long and da-
hberate aim the ball was pocketed. An
other went down, and still another. Then
he missed.
Next game he was first, and as the house
pays a dollar to the man putting the tf-
teen balls down from the break, the boys
had many jokes to crack at the expense of
the stranger.
"Now for the dollar" they kept saying
as country chalked his cue to break. His
whole manner changed. He Strengthened
himself up and handled the cue with a
grace that surprised the others in the
game and made the spectators laugh. He
hit the pyramid square and sent two balls
to the pockets. Then he played the most
difficult shots on the table, putting the
balls down with an ease that made the
others who were playing green with envy.
He did not quit until he holed the fifteen
balls.
Then he played recklessly, bat managed
to get from six to ten balls every game.
The other boys did not like to quit the
game for appearance sake, and they played
in weary manner, never showing any en-
tbUsiasm.
The green country chap was cowboy
from Arizona, he said, aud Just dropped in
to have little fun with the boys, as it was
his night off and there vas no faro loose.

The Greatest Woman In the Country.

Some weeks since we promised, if posi-
be, to obtain an account of the work done
bysone of our Michigan ladies in one year.
This lady is Mrs. Catherine Carberry, and
the record from fall of 1885 to fall of 1886
is substantially as follows. in her own con-
else language; "Shelled fifty-fve bushels OF
corn and put it in the bin. Got home $500
pounds of coal and put it in the bin.
Trimmed eighty rods of fence and burned
Dropped eleven acres of corn and helped
cover it. Worked three acres of corn,
plowed 1t five times and hoed it once.
Topped it and hauled the fodder to the
barn. Snapped the corn and took it to the
barn, where my husband, eighty-six years
old, busked it. 1t made los bushels in the
ear. gathered my pumpkins and dug my
potatoes, and got fifteen cords of wood in
the shed and piled it up. Gathered my APP
pies and put them in the cellar. Took my
cider apples to the mill and brought back
five barrels of cider. Took one load to the
cider mill and sold them. spaded up the
ground and planted and worked my gar
den. Moved twenty rods of rail fence and
helped move twenty more.
"I cut and made my husband one coat,
and cut and made vest and pants and four
shirts and hemmed three pocket handker-
chiefs for him. Made myself six dresses
AllIee nice ones an q Three common ones,
nine aprons, one polonaise, eight pair of
pillow cases, four sheets, and hemmed
twalve napkins.
There are 923 pages in the Old Testament,
and read GIG pages, besides religious and
other papers, and kept a diary of the
weather and my work, and an account of
what We bought and sold, with day and
date. Did my homework and took care OF
my stock-three horses, three head of cat
tie, eight sheep and fifty hens-and raised
pet cat"
Mrs. Carberry is sixty.four years of age
and weighs but ninety.five pounds. She
retires each night at 10 o'clock and rises at
4 o'clock each morning, and takes no maps
between times.
In addition to the above, the lady has
taken care OF an invalid husband and done
many things unmentioned in this account,
and among them we may mention that she
has taken and paid for in advance the local
papers, and has honorably paid every cent
for everything she has bought.
This is a woman's work, and the record
is sufficiently commendable to make many
a man blush with shame. Few there are
who have so fully followed the admonition,
Whatsoever he saith unto you,kdo it."

The vandaIia Purchase.
lCourier JOURNAL

The Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton
has, by its purchase of the Vandalia, made
a sensation in the railroad world. 1t was
a coup d'etat, similar TO the reported sale
of the Baltimore and Ohio to the Rich
mond and West Point Terminal Company.
The Cincinnati, Hamilton and Dayton
operates 353 miles of road, and pays a big
ger dividend than any other railroad of i'm
portance in the United States. Mr. George
H. Stayner is the president and Mr.. Henry
S. Ives is vice.president. Mr.. Ives is another
Alfred sully. He is only twenty-five years
Wall street shrewder In financial affairs
than he. Both he and Mr.. Stayner are
ambitious of building up the Cincinnati,
